Mother passed away - feeling guilty
Hi everyone
My mother passed away from ALS early Sunday morning. I became her caregiver in March very suddenly and was there for the last two months of her life.
I am feeling very sad and broken by this, I'm feeling a lot of guilt for getting into slight arguments with her and us sometimes fussing a little bit.
One of the last nights she still had her voice, the last thing she told me as I was putting her to bed was "you are the best thing that ever happened to me".
Did anyone else who was a caregiver for their relative feel similarly after their relative passed? Guilt for fussing a little bit about stupid things due to the stress of the situation? How did you get through those feelings?
Thank you in advance.
